B ALE Y SAYS
SOUTH IS RIPE
FOR GOP DRIVE
Jim Baley of Marshall, candidate
for chairman of the Republican State
Executive committee, who was In1
Charlotte Monday in the interest of
his campaign for that office, believes,
he said, that the fluid political con
dition in the South today offers the
best opportunity in many years for
building a two-party system tit this
section. . ,
not,'; he : aaid "a partisan
matter t consider where we are go
ing, tn my opinion, we have reached
the point in this country at which
we must make an immediate decision
as to whether we shall go headlong
down the road to the kind ef social
iam England baa, or stop where We
are ' and consolidate our sockl 'and
economic position befor' basing any
farther along that road.
y"I know as well as anybody t
the Retfublican party faces I '
ties tat the South. In some sec' of
North Carolina the name of t 'i I ar

termine where we go from here. We
have done enough scouting in the so
cial and economic field. We have ex
perimented enough. Our experi
ments, in fact, have been made faster
than the economy can absorb them,
and that is why we have a deficit
IS billion today. If we can't bal
ance that budget in times of prosperi
ty, we shall never balance it
"Therefore, I believe the Repub
llcan party has a rare opportunity in
the South to check this headlong rush
to socialism by building a two-party
system.'; It may not come this year
or next or in five years, but I am
convinced that it will come in due
oofltiao.
EXPERIENCED POLITICIAN
Mr, Baley was born in Greensboro
88. years ago but has lived most of
his life in Madison County. He has
been practicing taw. In Marshall sicce
1933, and most of that time has been.

argue, therefore, that he baa the ex
perience that; will qualify .him for.
chairman or, tne executive committee.
They" slassify hint as a liberal Repubi
lican who would not turn the clock
fctvck but wtouldl merely check ; the
present trend long enough to con
solidate our position. ;-
